hahhaha! That is funny I've attempted to push around like the midwife did and probably would have come to the conclusion that my baby were headless if the midwife didn't seem so certain that the head was actually where it should be. How weird that she couldn't find it with the US machine though!
I asked my midwife for weeks where the head was, I was sure he was breech. She just said, "I don't feel it up her so it must be down here." Well, his head was "up there" and he was stuck behind my liver and ribcage. I didn't find this out until I was being induced and 5cm dilated already.
I am very glad they did the ultrasound and found the head!!!
